Leech P neurons possess caffeine-sensitive ion channels in intracellular Ca(2+) stores and in the plasma membrane. The following results indicate that these channels are also activated by 2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-nitrosophenyl)-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester (NTP), the photoproduct of the L-type Ca(2+) channel-blocker nifedipine:

A method for the determination of 2,6-dimethyl-4-(2'-nitrosophenyl)-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid dimethylester in nifedipine (bulk material and pharmaceutical formulations) by second-derivative ultraviolet spectrophotometry is described. The procedure is simple and rapid and gives accurate and precise results.
